Welcome to the Daily Telescope. There is a little too much darkness in this world and not enough light, a little too much pseudoscience and not enough science. We'll let other publications offer you a daily horoscope. At Ars Technica, we're going to take a different route, finding inspiration from very real images of a universe that is filled with stars and wonder.

Good morning. It's January 6, and today's image features a newish star cluster in the constellation Cepheus.

The stars in this cluster are relatively young, estimated at an age of about 4 million–12 million years old. The cluster is formally known as NGC 7380, and the feature is known more informally as the Wizard Nebula. It was first reported by German astronomer William Herschel, who said it was discovered by his sister, Caroline Herschel, in 1787.
